Honey Daze: A Celebration of Virginia’s Golden Harvest Along Nelson 151
The producers of Nelson 151 invite visitors to experience one of the region’s most delightful seasonal traditions—Honey Daze, a celebration of Virginia’s golden harvest and the rich flavors it inspires.
Set against the backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Honey Daze is a week (or weekend) dedicated to savoring the very best of local craft and culinary creativity. Guests can explore an incredible lineup of honey-inspired offerings, from locally brewed beers and honey-infused wine spritzers to smooth rye whiskey, crisp ciders, and small-batch meads, bourbons and more that highlight the natural sweetness of the season.
Food lovers will find just as much to enjoy, with honey-inspired lunches, hot honey barbecue sauces, and farm-fresh breakfasts served at charming bed-and-breakfasts along the trail. Coffee shops join in the celebration with signature honey coffees, while local artisans add a creative touch with unique experiences like live glass blowing demonstrations.
From sunrise breakfasts to sunset toasts, Honey Daze captures the spirit of Nelson 151 in every moment. It’s more than a tasting event—it’s an invitation to slow down, explore, and connect with the land, the makers, and the flavors that define this special region.
Whether you’re planning a day trip or a full weekend getaway, Honey Daze is the perfect reason to gather your friends and discover why Nelson 151 is one of Virginia’s most inviting destinations.
